  • Comments: I'll do this race again. Big learning day as I had the open water wave swim for the first time; drafting for the first time, and the awful hill climb at the start of the bike. The run went very well, as I passed about forty people that probably passed me on the bike hill. Transitions went pretty well for first race of the year. The brick warmup was also a new and good thing

  • Comments: Overall this race was okay. It was smaller, which was kinda nice, but I expected there to be a lot more people, aid stations and hoped there'd be better food. There were orange slices (yuuuum) but then dry bagel bites. Sorry, but I had cotton mouth enough as it was so the thought of gumming down a dry bagel was gross, lol. BUT!! I got to meet a couple BT'ers and see some friends I hadn't seen in a while. After my parent's left I went back to where they were having the awards and when I checked my official time it dawned on me that I was FOURTH!!! WOW!!! That made my whole day a little bit better :)

  • Comments: Distance bother me I could use a longer bike and would like an accurate 3.1 run, but my family likes going up for this event. The girls loved seeing the Pelicans, the hot air balloons, the water skiers, playing on the beach, playing on the inflatable toys ( and JJ seemed to like that part too he didn't comment on any of it though ;) ) So just for the overall atmosphere we will probably be back. Hey maybe next year I will have kid patrol and my wife will race it?!?!!
